    Just picked up a Jackson KE-3, looking to replace bridge and pick-ups

    Got this thing for a steal, but the stock pickups are definately below par on the KE-3. I have a Duncan TB-4 to replace the bridge pickup with and I was thinking of replacing the neck pickup with a duncan SH-2 jazz neck. I play some jazz-fusion but other than that, never use the neck pickup...

    Anyone have an opinion on the Ibanez s470?

    I've been looking to switch from gibson/epiphone into something a bit more comfortable neck wise. Most comfortable neck I've played so far has been a Jackson Kelly, I'm having a hard time finding one that is new and just plain black (the used ones get shot to hell very fast). The fixed kahler...

    What would be the best DI to use for guitar rig?

    I'm using a pod 2 right now... the sound is adequate but I'm sure I could do better.

    Anyone using Gibson Burstbucker Pickups?

    Believe it or not, I have an acceptable sound coming out of my Epiphone G400 custom. A set neck and 3 double coil pickups are making a big difference on this one. I have a fetish for gold hardware so I was going to trade up to the Gibson White Les Paul Studio w/gold hardware. Oddly enough, I...

    Anyone have any guitar samples done with the pod 2, vamp2, v-amp pro or vox tonelab?

    I'm really wondering about the clean tones (I see the pod has an '87 jc-120 model). I think I'm heading for the pod 2.0 for entry level electric recording. Used off eBay for $100-150 its a good deal for the DI/balanced TRS output alone. I have guitar rig and a digitech s100 if I really don't...

    Replacing stock pickup with LR Baggs for Acoustic recording & DI

    Have a Takamine EG560C - the pickup is shot and its time for a replacement. Enstead of getting a Takamine replacement pickup I was wondering if an LR Baggs pickup would be any better. I'm using an LR Baggs Para Acoustic DI for recording and I've heard their acoustic pickups are really good...

    Play back from an Echo MIA on a SB Audigy 2 ZS

    I'm trying to figure out if its even possible to do this with windows - use my SB Audigy 2 ZS to monitor or even playback? I've been trying to do this with Guitartracks pro. It will let you send the output to your soundcard but it comes out really bad and garbled. I figure this should be...

    Wierd "click" when I put pressure on the bridge of my takamine EG-560C

    I thought this was intereference, dirty pots or my patch cable in my setup but its actually coming from the output of my new(ish) Takamine (bought last summer, never used w/amplifier until now). Still has the original TK4N preamp... any suggestions? It's due for a string change so i'm...

    So I have a pair of Yamaha NS-30X 6 ohm speakers

    The Yamaha NS-10's have quite the reputation (both + and -). I can't find any reference to this model anywhere. I'm trying to figure out if they were meant as "monitors" or not... They are a bit big for "bookshelf" (19" tall) and *heavy*. Regardless, they are suprisingly clear and great for...

    Problem with line level to Echo Mia from VS100 line out emu

    Just go an echo mia off ebay and can't get the line level up high enough. Using the clean channel on the VS100 and the echo mia input at +4db the highest I can get the speaker emulator DI line out jack to hit is -26db without the sound distorting. I know the DI/speaker emulator jack from the...
